beef1020,
Hope you keep us updated during the season, as your results so far are mirroring mine, with the exception that you're growing in-ground, and I'm using growbags.
My plants are approximately at the same height as yours. I did see a few leaves that had some damage when I last saw them last weekend, but most leaves have no damage. And one of the varieties I'm growing is German Butterball, so it'll be easy to compare our results.
No idea about the potato beetle. I haven't seen bugs of any type on mine, except that I did see a little damage to a few leaves.
If this goes well using growbags I have no doubt potatoes will be one of my main growouts yearly. I'm anxious to find out how good these will actually taste.
Jeff
